Die For Love

Die For Love by Elizabeth Peters

Jacqueline Kirby is bored stiff in Nebraska, and decides to attend a romance writer's conference in NYC.  Why this conference?  It's in New York, and she's hoping her college will pay her way since she's a librarian.  Such is her train of thought.  But all is not fluffy and lusty in romance-land... an unlovable, angry columnist appears to die of heart failure, but Jacqueline suspects it was murder.

This is the third of the Kirby series, and had a good setup, but the characters were not very likable.  It's like the pink hearts decorations brought out their anger.  Everyone has a reason to want the columnist dead, so it was fun to sort through the suspects, but there were so many that their back stories were thin. Overall, it was a pretty good story.
